The bill amends Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes by repealing Section 7104, which pertains to fortune telling. This section previously defined the offense of fortune telling as a misdemeanor of the third degree, detailing various methods by which individuals could be found guilty, such as predicting future events through cards, charms, or other means for personal gain. It also included provisions regarding the admissibility of advertising as evidence and the competency of witnesses in cases related to fortune telling.

By repealing this section, the bill effectively removes the legal penalties associated with fortune telling in Pennsylvania, eliminating the definitions and stipulations that previously governed this practice. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
